Where, oh where, is my iPhone 5s? Oh where, oh where can it be?
I want it now more than ever before. Would someone just send it to me?
:rolleyes:
 
I chose expedited shipping which I keep reading was a complete waste of money. How did anyone get or choose next-day delivery?

I called and explained to them that theres no way if my item is still processing it will arrive on time for OCt7-10 .. and they changed the shipping from standard to 2-3 day shipping. and 2 hours later it changed to Preparing to ship..:)
 
AT&T Gold 32 12:09 PDT now preparing for shipment!

Completed order for AT&T Gold S 32GB 9 minutes after possible to order, and got confirmation email stamped 12:11. Been checking all day, just changed to preparing for shipment! I'm in Hawaii, but in the past have had them go to TN first via FedEx. I didn't pay for expedited shipping since everything to Hawaii is air anyway.
 
My 32GB gold was just delivered to me! I'm in such awe that it's finally in my hands after waiting almost 2 weeks! Good luck to everyone whose orders are still processing or preparing for shipment! You forget all about the wait once you open your door and see the UPS man!
 
Called Apple

I just got off the phone with apple, she said that 3 days preparing for shipment is normal, and that the 8-11 October date will be fulfilled...I should have cried on the phone to get something free lol....I speak fluent English but I cant express my sadness as good as a native I guess. I wish she could see me, she would trow me a iphone 6.
 
Anybody in the forum has the same situation as mine?:mad:

YEY. Finally. Just checked my account amount has been deducted and phone is preparing for shipment.
 
I just refreshed and I'm also shipped!

It's about damn time.

Ordered on Sept 20 at 12PM EST, 16GB Space Grey T-Mobile.
 
So I'm still "preparing for shipment" for about 58 hours now. But I did jump on the bandwagon & gave Apple a call just to check check on what's going... (Credit card charged & no shipment) I wasn't rude or pushy, just curious, I didn't ask for anything other to know when my phone would move to the "shipped" status. He offered me a free case & refunded the 10$ I had paid for expedited shipping but still kept it as expedited shipping. Nice move apple - everyone likes free stuff :)

Gold 32gb AT&T
Order confirmation email from apple @ 3:10am EST
Status changed to Preparing for Shipment 9/30 @4:00pm
